How do I send my high school transcript to a college or employer?

There are two types of transcripts: official and unofficial

Official: These transcripts have the school seal pressed into them. They can be sent only to schools and potential employers. They cannot be mailed or given to you. The reason is that this is the only way to protect the information/grades that appear on the transcript from being tampered with. There is a cost of $2.00 to send a transcript to a school or employer. You may stop in the Guidance Office at Whitnall to pay the $2.00 and request that a transcript be sent. You may also mail a $2.00 check made out to Whitnall High School. Include a note with your name, the year you graduated, and the name and address where the transcript should be sent. Generally, transcripts are mailed out the same day they are requested.

Unofficial: There are times when you might need a copy of your transcript for personal reasons. We will make a copy, but stamp "UNOFFICIAL" on the transcript. Any transcript that is handed to you or mailed to you will be stamped "UNOFFICIAL".

There is no charge for an unofficial transcript.

If you have any questions regarding transcripts, please call the Guidance Office at (414) 525-8524.
